If you are finding you are having trouble getting to sleep or waking up in the middle of the night, some of these tips may be helpful:
- Finish eating and snacking at least 2-3 hours before you go to bed. A full stomach can impact your ability to sleep.
- Minimise caffeine in the afternoon and evening.
- Get some exercise during the day; walk up the stairs, dance while brushing your teeth, park the car a little further away from where you need to be and walk.
- Turn off screens an hour or so before bedtime as the light from the screen can keep you awake.
- Write down your ‘to do’ list and any thoughts about the day and what you need to remember for tomorrow.
- Download the day, write in a diary or journal and get your thoughts and emotions on paper.
- If you wake up with racing thoughts in the middle of the night, get up and write your thoughts down. Once you’ ve written them down, it’s likely you’ll be able to go back to sleep.
- Check in with your GP for any physical reason for your lack of sleep.
